TO THE PUBLIC. 



i The subscriber offers to the public this little book, con- 
taining the names of all the cities, towns and post ojfRces 
in the State of North Carolina, with the distances from the 
Capital and principal commercial towns, together with the 
population of the incorporated towns of the State, the 
white and the colored races divided; also the names and 
post offices of the leading lawyers in the State. 

The subscriber has devoted much labor and pains to this 
work, and thinks it will be very useful to all professional 
and business men, as well as interesting to those who pay 
attention to the statistics of the State. Strangers, and the 
traveling public generally, will find it invaluable, as it con- 
tains information that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Care 
has been taken to ensure correctness of statement, though 
it is probable some errors may be found, which, under the 
circumstances, could not well have been avoided. 

Trusting that his book may be favorably received, the 
subscriber has the honor to be, the public's 
Most obedient servant, 

J. S. HAMPTON.
